[Bug 38758] SlingPlayer 1.x installers fail

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38758

--- Comment #2 from Ken Sharp  ---
Went back to Wine 1.7.30 where I managed ONE successful installation. After
that though every single attempt failed with a new "Function failed" message no
matter which version of Wine I tried to use (while bisecting). I can't see that
being an issue with Wine but something very wrong with Ubuntu.

In short: I cannot run a regression test. It's impossible.

Note: if the installer asks if you want to install the Windows Media Components
then the installation has progressed past this bug.
